Hi everyone
This is my first posting and a request for your experience really. A couple of years ago, we spent New Year at our local bar at Pont Samuel, near Silfiac. The then proprietors, Rene and Marie put on a meal and decorated the bar, but apart from our family and two friends who had come accross with us, the rest of the people who came to the party were one french couple and the others were all men, who seemed to be "single". Whilst we made the best of the low turnout we did have a good night, but wondered if this was the norm. So my question is - What does happen at NY in the Silfiac area, do the Bretons celebrate at home or have a party somewhere else? What happens at Christmas? I would love to hear from the residents certainly around the Cleguerec, Guemene areas (the largest big villages near to us) - what happens? We would love to try again 'cos of the gap between October half term and Feb half term is just too long.....
Thanks
Gary
